How has the COVID-19 pandemic influenced prostate cancer?—a tertiary single-centre analysis of oncological results,diagnosis and treatment times

BackgroundThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has affected care for diseases like cancer. The aim was to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on waiting times for diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer (PC), as well as the possible effect on the treatment results in PC patients undergoing radical prostatectomy.MethodsWe compared the results of 497 patients who underwent biopsy prior to the COVID-19 pandemic (1 January–31 December 2019) with those of 290 patients biopsied during the COVID-19 pandemic (1 January–31 December 2020). Demographic data, tumour characteristics, type of treatment and diagnosis times were comparable. Prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels were recorded at consultation prior to biopsy and after treatment. Mann-Whitney and chi-square tests were used to compare continuous variables and percentages, respectively.ResultsIn 2020, there were fewer urology consultations (35,160 vs. 40,225 in 2019). The median PSA in 2020 was significantly higher (14.3 vs. 9.9 ng/dL in 2019). In 2019, 53.1% (N=264) of the biopsies were positive for cancer vs. 47.2% (N=137) in 2020 (P=0.104). In 2020, more patients presented with metastatic disease (7.3% vs. 1.9%, P=0.009). Also, in 2020 there was a longer waiting time for prostate biopsy (42.1 vs. 35.3 days in 2019, P=0.019). A total of 132 patients underwent laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LARP). The median time until surgery was similar in both years (71.9 vs. 58.29 days). During 2020, a higher percentage of patients had ISUP grade 4 in the surgical specimen (34.3% vs. 17.5%, P=0.07). Furthermore, a higher percentage of aggressive (pT3) tumours were diagnosed (37.2% vs. 27.2%, P=0.08), and the percentage of patients with involvement of surgical margins was also higher (48.6% vs. 29.3%, P=0.027). There were no differences between the groups in terms of biochemical recurrence or persistent PSA at one year (P=0.711).ConclusionsDelayed biopsy during the COVID-19 period did not appear to adversely impact biopsy results. Patients biopsied in 2020 had higher PSA, possibly due to proper triaging. A higher rate of adverse pathology outcomes was observed in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy during the pandemic, probably due to understaging of the biopsy. This study serves to raise awareness of the risk of deterioration of care of PC patients due to possible underdiagnosis.     

水溶性药物的疏水性修饰及其重组型脂质体的研究

脂质体载水溶性药物出现的共同问题是药物的包封量低、稳定性差。本文以甲硝唑(Ⅰ)为水溶性药物模型,进行疏水性结构修饰,得其肉豆蔻酸酯(Ⅱ)前体药物,分别进行Ⅰ和Ⅱ的脂质体研究,结果表明Ⅱ在脂质体中的包封率较Ⅰ提高10倍以上,渗漏速率降至十分之一,制成含Ⅱ的脂质干膜,经超声分散,可得合乎要求的重组型脂质体,为解决脂质体载药的稳定性问题提供有效途径。体外抗阿米巴原虫试验,镜检观察到载药脂质体进入阿米巴原虫的细胞内,且100%抑制原虫所需剂量Ⅱ脂质体是Ⅰ游离药的二分之一。因此药物疏水化修饰是解决脂质体载水溶性药物稳定性问题的理想途径。     

Skin disorders in patients transplanted in childhood

Only few data are available on skin disorders in pediatric organ transplant recipients. In order to describe the whole range of dermatological diseases in a population of pediatric organ transplant recipients, we studied a group of 217 consecutive organ transplant recipients (168 kidney, 29 heart, 19 liver, one lung) aged <18 years at transplantation followed at a single center. A total of 193 patients showed at least one skin disorder; 149 had more than one skin disease. The most common skin infections were warts (24.4%), pityriasis versicolor (20.7%), folliculitis (12.9%), intertrigo (6.5%); the most common drug side effects were hypertrichosis (69.6%), steroid acne (39.6%), gingival hyperplasia (29%) and severe xerosis (20.7%). Two patients (0.9%) developed nonmelanoma skin cancer. Our study summarizes the main skin complications in patients transplanted in childhood and underlines the necessity of regular dermatologic surveillance of these patients.     

Long-term intraocular pressure control by trabeculectomy: a ten-year life table

A retrospective study of 179 eyes in 127 patients who underwent trabeculectomy at Sydney Eye Hospital under the supervision of two surgeons between 1977 and 1982 was carried out. Survival analysis by life table method shows cumulative two, five, and 10 year success rates to be 78%, 70%, and 67% respectively, with mean duration of intraocular pressure control (IOP<21 mmHg) being 88 months. Anti-glaucoma medication improved the long-term survival significantly (Hazard Ratio of 0.49 and P = 0.01) so that when the definition for failure is taken as IOP >20 mmHg while using medication, the two, five and 10 year success rates were 89%, 87% and 86% respectively. A rise in average intraocular pressure is seen between two weeks and three months after trabeculectomy. The improvement in long-term success rate with use of topical steroids was suggestive (Hazard Ratio of 0.69) but not conclusive (P = 0.21). No difference was found in survival comparing fornix versus limbal based flap technique.     

Life course dental caries determinants and predictors in children aged 12 years: a population-based birth cohort

Abstract – Objective: To investigate the main dental caries life course determinants and predictors of dental caries at age 12. Methods: This study was nested in a population‐based birth cohort started in 1993 in Pelotas, Brazil. A sample of 359 children was followed‐up. Dental examinations and interviews were performed at 6 and at 12 years old. Dental caries (DMFT) at 12 years old was the outcome. Exploratory variables included socioeconomic and demographic variables at birth, children’s nutritional and development characteristics, primary dental caries, oral health related behaviors and dental service use at age 6 and 12. Poisson regression was used in order to provide relative risk ratio estimates. Attributable risk or etiology fraction and population attributable risk for both main early life variables were calculated. Dental caries prediction (DMFT ≥ 1) at 12 years old was tested using logistic regression analyses. Results: Children who presented height‐for‐age deficit at 12 months (RR 1.50 CI: 95% = 1.03–2.18), children who showed a DMFT of 1–3 and 4–19 at 6 years (RR = 2.01; CI: 95% = 1.33–3.03, and RR = 2.66; CI: 95% = 1.81–2.53, respectively) and those children aged 12 in the highest tertile of proportion of teeth experiencing gingival bleeding (RR = 1.58; CI: 95% = 1.11–2.24) presented a higher level of dental caries at age 12. Attributable risk for dental caries at age 12 were 79.1% and 74.2% for deficit in height for age at 12 months and for primary dental caries at age 6 years respectively; population attributable risk for dental caries at age 12 were 3.1% for deficit in height for age at 12 months and 64.9% for primary dental caries at age 6. The level of accuracy in predicting dental caries at age 12 by using life course socioeconomic, behavioral and clinical data was modest. Conclusions: The results of this study support the hypothesis linking social, biological and behavioral exposures and dental caries at 12 years old. In addition, the findings reinforce the lack of accuracy of dental caries predictors therefore limiting the individuals high‐risk approach as a public health strategy.
